Did you also configure Xorg to use that driver?
Yeap, I'm using the basic configuration proposed by the authors. Here's the content of /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "InputClass"
*** MatchIsTouchpad "on"
*** Identifier***** "Touchpads"
*** Driver********* "mtrack"
EndSection

I would check Xorg's log ("grep -i mtrack /var/log/Xorg.0.log") because I
guess that driver it should be part of the Xorg's stack and not loaded as
standalone module.
There's nothing related to mtrack on the X log, I'm not even sure if X is parsing that conf file.
